Mark Heaney Releases New Solo Album

“Origins“ is Mark Heaney’s second solo album. “I wanted to make an album which reflected my musical beginnings and represents the origins of my sound and style. A mixture of various sounds and music that inspired and made me the musician I am today,” says Heaney. To capture a genuine, organic room sound and raw energy, Mark used only one microphone on most of the tracks (for some he stretched it to 2 or 3). Most tracks were done in 1 or 2 takes. “For me this album is all about the performance, energy, emotion, excitement, and the unpredictability of improvising in the moment which to me is the essence of being a musician. I always try to make music that reflects life experience and emotion,” concludes Mark.
